Adhesive for Civic emblem
I took off my civic emblem, not the "H" but the actual "CIVIC" lettering. Now i want to put it back on, does anyone know what adhesive i should use?

Rep Power: 0 I tried the 3m tape, but i don't like how its elevated from the body of the car. I want it to be flush along the body. I think i will try the dealer, i'm sure they will have something.

Rep Power: 0 That stuff "automotive goop" works great...it's kinda permanent though, so be careful using it. That's actually a good thing cuz it make the emblem more theft proof. I use this stuff for all my emblems, it will be perfectly flush on the car.
After sticking it with that stuff, you gotta put something (like masking tape) to hold it in place for a few hours until it sets...

It's just casual passerbys using their fingers will have no way of removing it, that's all I meant...

Rep Power: 0 Yep, that stuff is called "Automotive Goop"...it's in a dark pink tube...you can get it at any Canadian Tire or Walmart for about $5.
Telly: What is a JB Weld? Sounds interesting...I've spent way too much on my emblems and might want to do that...

JB Weld is a super crazy adhesive you can find in Homo Depot and Canadian Tire. It comes in 2 tubes, which you have to mix together, like most cements. Warning, this **** is PERMANENT. Like if you decide you don't want your emblem anymore, you're gonna be taking off paint. But I have it holding my left rear seat bolster on, and it's holding strong after 2 months and several fat people sitting on that side.
